Cliff's face pops up on the screen as he calls Marc "sexy" and Marc calls him "Big Tiny" back. Wha-huh? That does not sound like something you'd want to call your boyfriend, or for him to want to be called. Marc wants to meet at Prune later for a parsley and dandelion salad. Cliff asks Marc to move in with him. Excellent segue, Big Tiny. Marc bristles. "We spend all our time together, doesn't it make sense?" I spent all my time at home, doesn't mean I'm ready to move in...oh, wait. Nevermind.

He clearly appears as though he should be dating Betty.
No, wait, he matches. Nevermind.

Stalker Betty is looking out her keyhole viewer a.k.a. "Peephole" for Jesse. There he is, run! Run! Run with that half bag full of garbage. "Hi Jesse, I was just thinking about you," I bet you were. He has to be both skeeved out and a little flattered at the same time. Not really the best combo. She invites him to the Mode party but happens to mention she's in charge of the party and finding the band, and suddenly he thinks she wants him to play because like all lead singers it's all about him. D'oh! "You're a snow day, Betty." He did say snow and not blow, right?

Back at the office, Betty is trying to figure out how to get Jesse's band to play at the Mode party even though they already booked Mariah Carey because Connor knows her. Uh, fire Mariah and bring in Jesse's band. It's not that hard and trust me, no one will miss her. Do we miss her now? But Daniel is having none of it because he's hoping to do Mariah later (I'm surmising, he doesn't actually say anything).

Marc is having a crisis of conscience about moving in with Cliff, but it's really a crisis of style because let's face it, Cliff is a bit of a style-less buffoon. He is! I love his character as much as you do, but he's just a mess, not someone Marc would be with in his current form. Amanda completely understands that "living with a fattie is hard. They're always hogging the bed and making a mess and borrowing your clothes." Speaking of which, Marc loves her dress. It's one of Betty's shirts but Amanda belted it and it looks fine. You know why? BECAUSE SHE'S ONLY WEARING ONE PATTERN, that's why!

Oh, Connor, you naughty, naughty boy. Call me!

Wilhelmina shows up looking like she just stopped by from the planet of Vulcan with that dress and Marc has exactly what she needs. Dirty, dirty scoop on Connor. Delish! She wants Marc to make an appointment for her after work with Connor so he knows who he should be aligning himself with. Dun-dun-dunnnn!

Betty and Christina are in the park lunching on something I don't even understand when Amanda shows up. This show has a lot of stalkers and yet I can't get anyone to follow me around. She sees Betty is upset and says, "So why the brown face?" Ha, can't wait to use that on my dogs. Christina spills to Amanda and Amanda recommends that Jesse plays at the after-party. Which one? The one Betty and Amanda are having on their rooftop! Jesse will get to play and Amanda will charge people to help pay off her credit card debt. Good thinking. A lesser woman would have just filed bankruptcy.

Back at Mode/Hot Flash, Claire is all pissed off because she has to use glasses for her water versus just sucking down some from a plastic bottle. Oh, call a bloody wahhhbulance, Claire. She's upset because this is one of Connor's ideas to save money. Seems like if she's that upset about it she could, I don't know, use some of her own fortune and plunk down $8 on a case of bottled water?

Sucks when your motherly advice comes back to bite you in the ass.
But as a kid, it's totally schweet when that happens to a parent!

Claire recommends putting a water bottle in the corner so they can all take turns sipping on it like hamsters. Having grown up with hamsters, there is nothing cuter than seeing their little tiny tongues lick drops of water. It would be kind of funny to see models doing that. She's also livid that they now have to sign a key out for the supply room, as if Claire even knows where that is. By the way, you're the one that wanted to save some money, so it's not going to just affect the little people like paying taxes does.

MandaMo:

omg, I don't watch this show, but I LOVE the intro you wrote for it. Because I totally went through a phase of dating (and getting dumped by) sensitive-rocker-wannabe-guitar guy!

Sigh.

Anyway, that just really made me laugh out loud. xoxo

dearcrabby:

MandaMo - thanks for reading. I went through that phase too (college band, sigh) but he wouldn't dump his girlfriend for me, wahhh!Of course, he was the bass player, so what kind of dork was I? :)
